Jon Stewart took a look back at old presidential speeches last night, and realized that the past eight presidents have promised to move the U.S. away from foreign oil toward energy independence. “Fool me once, shame on you,” he said. “Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me eight times — Am I a f–king idiot?”

“F–k it,” Stewart decided. “Let’s just use oil. You know what? We have to. I will not allow the dinosaurs to have died in vain.”
